Question

WHERE ON THE SURFACE OF THE EARTH THE ACCELERATION DUE TO GRAVITY IS MAXIMUM AND WHERE IS IT MINIMUM ? GIVE REASON .

Answer 1

maximum at equator and minimum at poles. it depends on the radius of Earth the more the radius less the acc. due to gravity it is inversely proportional.

Answer 2

accelration due to gravity depend upon the radius.. of the earth .
g= GM/ R^2

here G is constant = 6.67 x 10^-11 N m^2 kg^-2
M mass of earth also constant . 6.018 x 10^24

but as .. earth is not a full sphere .

so its ..polar radius is short then equatorial one

when the radius is less
it means the ...value of g is max at surface .. of earth ... but its zero at the center of the earth ..

it decreaser when we go at height .
it decreses with depth ...
